This commission ‘have come to the unanimous conclusion that the enrolment for the State of New York under the act of March 3, 1868, was imperfect, erroneous and excessive, especially so with reference’ to the cities of New York and Brooklyn.

Our lees in the attack on the enemy at Weat Point was forty killed and wonmded. We drove the rebels and @estroyed a number of cars and culverts, the depot, weveral miles of railroad track and a large amount of cora and cotton, In the attack by Forrest upon our rear at Okolona the ‘Third Tennessee cavalry broke at the frat fire, ranning six of our smal! guns foto a @itch. The gung were spiked and their carriages broken, In this fight our loss was about 100, who were nearly all taken prisoners: Our total loss during the expedition was about 160: The column burned about three thousand bales of re- bel cotton and over a million bushels of corn, and captured over 100 prisoners, 1,000 mules and » muititude Of nogroes, So large @ portion of our force was required to guard the trains, captured property and negroes, that we were greatly outnumbered at Okolona by Forrest, whose effoct- ive force was over 5,000 strong.

Everything indicates that the forthcoming Metropol. tan Sanitary Fair will surpass in brilliancy and success all that bas hitherto been attempted in ao similar way. All classes of our citizens have set earnestly and vigor- ‘ously to work for the purpose of swelling the receipts and benefitting the noble enterprise of the United States Sanitary Commission. The building on Fourteenth street (formerly the Palace Garden) where the fair is to be held is fast approaching completion, and is now ready for the reception of goods. Contributions are being re celved in great numbers, and will be srranged and clas- sified with the least possible delay, as much remains to be done before the 28th inst.,on which day tho fair opens. Among the many things talked about is a “Knicker- bocker Kitchen,’’ the Iadies being quite sure that a fac similie of an old fash! German kitchen would neo @ quite as attractive and remunerative as the New ee ee ee Amon; ethe many things which wilt juired in quantities we may mention birds in cages, — tm globes, together with new or sccond-hand rustic stands and tables for holding flowers.

Organization of the P: yivania Se- mate. Bannissvea, Pa., Feb. 29, 1864. Before the Senate met an immense crowd filled the gal- Jories. There was groat excitement. Much excitement was manifested to see the man upon whose clection the swo months’ blockade of legislation was raised. About six feet high, brawnily built, be is bard in feature, but stern, determined in look and manner. He was conducted from his hotel to the Senate chamber by a large escort , embracing military and civic characters in high position. Brief addresses were mado, in which Geverals Williams and Knipe participated. When the procession roached the Capitol steps, four thousand persons were in the procossion, or inline, or on the Capitol grounds. The excitoment was groater than at tho Governor’s inauguration. After the journal cope read, amid much ‘otiside confusion and struggle et into tne Chamber, the returos were read and tho i cdmtniter amid deepening interest. When the oath was administered there was loud applause in the gallerios Senator Johnson, republican, moved to take up the bill allowing soldiers to vote next October. Sena- tor Clymer, democrat, called the yeas and nays. The vote Tesulted, 117 yeas, 16 nays. galt sgl burst of enthusiasm, with hurrabs from the result. ‘The democracy called the oe gon every question, however trivial, aud 4 &-) on “motion to proceed to the election iy of Chief Clerk.”” attempted to amend by proceed- ing to the election of a Speaker, which was lost.

Obituary. ‘MR. JAMES GRANT. Atelogram from San Francisco informs us that Mr. James Grant died there on the 25th ult., of erysipelas. Mr. Grant ought to be woil remembored in this city. Before the Eldorado fever broke oat he used to shave ali the prominent politicians, and was generally liked as geod barber, a clever fellow andan honest man. When he went to California we expected that he would evlipse Tharlow Weed, the State barber, and sbave his way to the Gubernatorial chair, He got as far as the alderman. ship of San Francisco, and then he died. If he had lived he would have been a greater man. He bad the right stuff in him, and came, like General Grant, from ® good old family in the Highlands of Scotland. Indeed, General Grant and Jim Grant are of the same stock. The lattor is dead, and the former will soon be President. This is the way of the world, EDWARD HITCHOOCE, D.D., LU.D.

Sach ia the picture pre- sented this morning by the two chambers. How long this Busy cave will continue, the clean faces, Ronest and virtuous expressions hold out, remains to be seen, ‘The bulk of tho business of the session is yet to be done. The important bills im the main are yet to be cunsiderod, The Metropolitan Police bill, for in- stance, bas passod ons house, and remains in the aands of the committes in the Assembly, After the recces was taken,the loading republicans heid a consultation, and agreed to strike out the mame of McMurray and insert that of James ©. Willett. The sudden death of Mr. Wil- lett puts aa end to that programme, Since Mr. McMur- ray bolted from the recent State Convention with Tam- many, the chances are that the republicans will not dis- turb his name, but let it pass as tt now stands. Tho sooner it 1 @one, for the peace of the city of New York and the interests, of its citizens the bet‘or. Delay in this matter is dangerous, and it should be disposed of at once, It, however, now looks very much as though there would be no action on the bill until after they see what Tammany Hall does with its delegation for bolting from the recent State Convention. ‘Thus !t will be seem that Presidential nominations are = up with everything, from the move of our ywn to the action of the Legislatut 0 Pol Gomaalastioecs for your city. It is the wheel ‘within the wheol that affects all transactions. Mombers of the Logisiature are talking over bills now before thom, ena Inquiring of exchjother, “Ir we pass that bill will it not hurt our party in the Presidential couteat?”’ It seoms al- most impossib!e to have any measure considered upon ite merits, or the question of right er wrong; but some — petty party or-Prestdential movement must be con. dered first, and if the bili will help that they will go forts it, it not, againgt It. If this thing continues to grow upon ‘the members as faet.as it has dono for some time past, they will not dare to wash their faces until they consult with each other to see if it will benefit or injure thelr party in Presidential matters. The House was in the Committee of the Whole this morning on the General Appropriation bill, There was quite a spicy debate over the Sopepeetce for the salary of the.Judge of the Court of ciliation im Delaware connty, which bore a party color. The appropriation was left in thefill, and flonily passed over for the present, Tho bill was gone through with, and then the section making appropriations to the National Guard, formerly passed over, was taken up The question coming up on striking out that appropriation, Mr. Alvord, in bringing the question before the House, stated that he did it with the understanding that a resolution would be offered at the proper time referring the question of appropriations for the militia to the Military Committee, and t! they would be instructed to report the amount necessary, and also such amendments as may be necessary for the better organization of the militia of the State, and ho hoped that the report would be for a liberal amount, and that it would meet the approval of a majority of’ the Legislature. Mr. Wooster, a republican, followed with a speech that did bim great credit, denouncing the | apa ae! logisia ting in such matters for party effvot. believed that if Genenora! Wadsworth, instead of Horatio Seymour, had beon elected Governor, and administered this law, there would have been no effort on the part of his party ‘B880- ciates to strike at the iaw. He did not believe in that mode of legislation. He other course in this matter mow. than he woul done hid his own party candidate seen elected Governor. ‘This atiom) ting to amend.laws becauge a Governor of another party had to administer them he considered as One of tho groxtest evils ol tbe time, and, for ove. ghou!d oppose any such move of his party friends on. ‘this occasion. His speech catised quite a commotion among the republicans. He was not present when the republicans held their caucus on this ‘rudjoct, a and therefore acted In- dependently. The caucus decided to repeal the National Guard bill and strike out this eben cence a And now to have one of th jest men of their party ia ‘Aneem- bly denounce that course, au‘ talk as a statesman would talk, ising above petty animositios, jealousies and per. sonal grievances, and looking at the’ matter only as it affected the State and. its genoral interéats, was some. thing that they had mot bargnined for. Tho republicans gathered in squads immediately after Woortor closed his speech, aaking each other, “What's the matter?” “In the ty to back down from the caucus decision?’ and such Fixe uestions. The reply in most instances was that Mr. Wooster was not at the caucus, but was acting on bis own respovsibility. The House adjourned until evening detore, ‘action was taken on the question. ‘The following bill in relation to wills was ordered toa intra reading in the Senate this morning.

The Commissioners of Charities and Correction are about to present a bill asking for power to erect a build. {ng on Ward's Island, where those who are committed for habitual drunkenvess shail be sent, and a workhouse erected for them there, instead of confining them with the criminals he other jostitutions—the ‘object being to send them to a place that will not degrade them to the level of those convicted of worse crimes. The object is certainly praise worthy. If these men ean in any way be reformed, let it be done.
